Funny solution :) Is the xml code different from dsource's std2.xml ? The api reference is a bit too tidy to my liking ;)

There is no "Tokens & Downloads" tab.

It automatically added TDPL to the 0-slot bookshelf. In the table of contents there are per chapter downloads which each cost one download token. On the online reading page I can print individual pages (with watermark) but downloads again cost tokens. Which button am I missing?

Next to the online version, all I get is the notification I need download tokens :( I signed up using the coupon code.

In that case I don't much care it takes 5 or 10 seconds for thousands of lines of code :) (or, I don't know how to time dmd more precise than with my stopwatch when called through bud :D) Anyway, I kind of like that it takes longer now with optimization. I haven't checked whether things actually got any faster, but it feels a bit like in older games when it said: "Optimizing X for your computer" or "Generating A.I." :)
Re: dmd 1.062 and 2.047 release
It's the optimization :) Without -O compilation took only a few seconds!
Re: dmd 1.062 and 2.047 release
My project takes 4 times longer to compile with 1.062 (iso 1.061). It now takes 1min 20sec on my p4 and memory doesn't seem to be the problem (<80MB). I'd rather have it below 30sec :) bud prj\main.d -w -inline -O -full -cleanup -IC:\D\Libs\

I don't think CTFE fills the gap of RTFE. I need the scripting for my users and they can't compile the program :) Maybe you are talking about another gap. Now, choosing a scripting language feels like a stab in the dark and I can't put it off forever :)

Scripting in de form of a dialect/subset of D in the std/language. I don't know enough about scripting to say anything specific/useful. It's just that if scripting were part of D, I would have used it already where the possibilities mentioned by Robert Clipsham just look that much bigger a step. And being part of the language/community simply instils trust.

Ok, good to know, as I really like to take the latest release: My monthly candy :D
